Just like the seven hills of Rome, let us give you the seven reasons why you MUST stay at IL BOOM:
1- Angelo the owner is lovely, he made us feel like home at once and was very helpful in his recommandations in terms of transportation, sightseeings etc
2- The two terrasses are just amazing, a peace harbor after long...

As I got to learn my way around Rome, I was always happy to return to Trastevere and the elegant, historic and stylish comfort of Il Boom. This neighborhood is a walk to the Tiber River and it's many bridge, as well as to the highest point in Rome. The neighborhood is alive with numerous bars and ristorantes and lots...

IL Boom is located in walking distance from Trastevere where there are plenty of nice restaurants to eat out in. The place itself is small and full of character with a very friendly host at hand with great tourist information and recommendations for your stay. The room was lovely and had a fabulous private bathroom with jacuzzi bath. Beside the...

We went to Rome in February and stayed at Il Boom--as always. This was personally my third stay, and still I admire the place as soon as I enter. This time I was together with my husband, and 1 other couple with a 5 years old girl. The apartment is wonderfully beatiful, very well decorated and has a great view....

It's difficult to find the best words for thanking you for your so nice and too good opinion!
Many thanks indeed!
It's always my best satisfaction to know our guests really enjoy their stay with us!
See you soon.

We have stayed in Il Boom twice now and will stay there again next time we visit Rome. Why? Because it is a lovely retro bed and breakfast, located far enough from the main hustle and bustle of Rome to get some peace and quite, but still within walking distance (if you don't mind a reasonable walk) of the main...

I have stayed at Il Boom twice and recommend it highly, especially for the independent traveler and those who like to be a bit off the beaten path. Although it is located in a quiet, residential section of Rome, there is a bus stop right outside the door that will take you to the Centro Storico in one direction and...

I stayed at “il Boom” in November for 4 days. The B&B is in an old palazzo on the hills of Gianicolo along an elegant street . “Il Boom” is beautifully decorated with retro furniture and the rooms are full of character, very specious, immaculate and equipped of all comforts. Angelo was very helpful and attentive to our needs. Finally...

This is a lovely bed and breakfast in Trastevere. Very clean rooms, spacious bathrooms and great breakfast. Easy access to the public transport, and only 10 minutes bus drive to many significant sites including the Colloseum, Roman Forum and Pantheon. We stayed twice in this hotel with our young boy and did not have any bad expeience.

As soon as you have arrived Angelo takes care of everything...
He tells you where to go and how to get there.
We had a great time and most of our visits were done by foot.
The location is perfect: quite neighborood but at walking distance of restaurants and about 20 minutes walk from most of the interesting sites.
We...

We spent 3 nights at IL BOOM in Trastevere in October and were very pleasantly suprised by the quality of the accommodation. I had heard that Rome was notoriously expensive so was not sure what to expect! Angelo, the owner organised our transfer from the airport and our room was ready when we arrived early in the morning, he also...

Staying in Trastevere

Neighbourhood Profile

Trastevere

Trastevere ("beyond the Tiber") is like a faded postcard, a little worn around the edges but still charming. With its wide-open piazzas, meandering streets, weathered Renaissance buildings, and overgrown personality, it's become an irresistible mecca for visitors. Trastevere is an enclave of entertainment - a rotating set of street performers entertains almost every night, and unforgettable eateries and bars pepper its piazzas and side streets. For a trip to the past, visit the southern and western flanks of Trastevere for pockets of yesteryear, less traversed areas with a residual 1960s and 70s Roman vibe.

The Bed & Breakfast IL BOOM is in a large apartment (where owners’ family lives) located on the attic floor and penthouse of an early 20th-century building, without lift/elevator, offering a breathtaking view over Rome. Up to 2005 this apartment has been just our home. We restored it with our taste and passion for the three decades (fifties, sixties, seventies) when Rome and Italy made progress and opened up to the world and culture. We tried to save what we could (vintage floors, ceilings, doors, full-length window), and maintain the Roman atmosphere of our place. One of the unique feature of our apartment are the two splendid terraces, equipped with deck-chairs and umbrellas, where guests can sunbathe and enjoy the romantic atmosphere of the Eternal City. On-site amenities furthermore include a comfortable lounge/kitchen, a PC with internet access, and wireless Internet access throughout the apartment. The Bed and Breakfast IL BOOM enjoys an excellent position in the heart of Rome, on the legendary Gianicolo Hill, along a beautiful tree-lined avenue in the charming Trastevere district, one of the city's most ancient and picturesque neighbourhoods. We are located in a quiet and secluded residential area, at a few minutes walking from the most important artistic, archeological, cultural sites of the city.Vatican City is just across Gianicolo Hill (half an hour walking through Fontanone - a monumental fountain - and Piazza Garibaldi - the most beautiful view of the city. Campo de Fiori, Piazza Farnese, Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Tiber Island, Campidoglio, all the historical center is just under our place. Restaurants, pizzerias, bars, pubs, any kind of shops are at five minutes walking. And we have also very efficient and close public transportation (daily and nightly): Bus 44, 75, 870, H; tram 8. The Bed and Breakfast Il Boom offers 3 spacious double guest rooms (Loren, Magnani and Vitti), each featuring an elegant private bathroom and ample wardrobes. Individually decorated in an attractive 50's, 60's and 70's style, the rooms are named after three famous Italian movie stars of that period: Anna Magnani, Sophia Loren and Monica Vitti. Each room is large and very light, with high plastered ceiling. Room Loren is the quietest one because it gives onto Villa Sciarra (a small public park) and nearby gardens. It features a small private en-suite bathroom with shower, and a flat screen TV. Room Magnani has a window with a wonderful view over Rome. It features an external (just in front of the room itself) very large private bathroom with large jacuzzi bathtub and shower. It has a flat screen TV. A single bed can be added. Room Vitti has a balcony and a window with a wonderful view over Rome. It features an external (just outside the room itself) private black & white bathroom with shower. It has a flat screen TV, and a double sofa bed. All accommodations are strictly non-smoking and equipped with independent air conditioning, centralized heating, hair dryer, and wireless Internet connection. A delicious self-service continental breakfast, with home-made cakes and biscuits, toasts, jam, yogurt, fruit juice, milk, tea and coffee, is at guests' disposal in the kitchen. Breakfast can be enjoyed in the dining area or on the outdoor terrace, whenever you prefer, at any time until 1 p.m....more less
